  • Composites including silicon-oxy-carbide layers and methods of making the same
    Patent number: 10787591
    Abstract: Composites comprising at least one silicon-oxy-carbide (SOC) layer deposited onto a polymeric matrix substrate to enhance their thermo-oxidative stability are provided. The SOC layer is formed onto the polymeric matrix substrate by atmospheric plasma deposition to produce an thermo-oxidative barrier coating or an adhesion-promoting layer to enable the deposition of a variety of known (or future developed) metallic and/or ceramic materials as oxygen and/or thermal barriers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 15, 2013
    Date of Patent: September 29, 2020
    Assignee: THE BOEING COMPANY
    Inventors: Thomas K. Tsotsis, Marvi A. Matos, Alpana Ranade, Laura M. Murphy
